Hello,

There's a small font problem when trying to use Dgvoodoo 2 with the game Edge of Chaos: Independence War 2 (Dx7).
The font is distorded with the wrapper.
The problem do not occurs without the wrapper and whe ntrying with wine3d for windows.

I put some examples in attached file between dgvoodoo2 and wine3d for windows (both tested in 2560*1440, but the problem appears in any resolution).
I use the retail version and patch f14.6.

There's a demo avalaible of the game (https://i-war2.com/downloads/download/32-demos/256-edge)

Works fine here. Are you sure it happens in the demo version? Because if you're not, linking to it is pretty useless.

You're right, the problem is not present in the demo version of the game (even if I copy paste French texts file in the demo).

I do not have the English or German version of the retail game to make futher try.
